Project description

Renovation of the Saint-Nazaire Halles and Surrounding Area Development

Renovation of the Saint-Nazaire Halles Market, with the enhancement of a remarkable heritage building from the post-war reconstruction era, showcasing its concrete skeleton.

Consideration of the technical and regulatory constraints required for the comfort and compliance of a public building like a market, without altering the beauty and volume of the existing halles (structure, air treatment, smoke extraction, plumbing, stormwater drainage, acoustics).

Spatial reorganization of flows and pathways between stalls to completely transform the atmosphere of the covered market and increase its attractiveness.

Under the guidance of the project owner and the Halles and Markets service, a consultation cycle (info sessions and workshops) is organized in close collaboration with the halles traders’ association.

Design and implementation of a temporary market on the halles parking lot during the entire renovation period of the halles.
